-theatre military robot; the PackBot. The cadets will be exposed to all of the issues common to robot design: ruggedization, power management, thermal management, electronic integration and user interface design. By the end of the project they will have a good understanding of what it takes to make a truly useful robot and what the design tradeoff issues are. And we will have a proof-of-concept system that we can use to evaluate the idea.Collectively, we agreed to design and build a robot for a particular purpose, one that met themarketing interests of the client and the learning objectives of the academy. Given that there isa growing number of robotics designer and manufacturers, we believe other
